And...........the carrier is not really compatible with NAS lamps, the bottom body mount is so close to the bottom of the lamp plinth that I think its toooooo close - looks like the lamp bases will have to be moved up 1 or 2mm............ :evil:

It will fit with NAS lights because that's the set-up I have.
I know I promised photos this weekend but I only remembered as I was putting the LR away this evening, I will see what they look like by flash.

Jimbo:
Thanks Alan,

The missing bolt arrived in the post yesterday - recorded delivery, I've had really good support from the place I bought the carrier from, just a tad dissappointed with the lack of fitting instructions (don't care what people say, it not just a case of bolting the thing on !), and the missing bits...........just need some daylight to try and fit it now  :roll:

Oh no it won't................... :evil:

Cos they've changed the design of the body side brackets, and the bottom one gets in the way of the NAS lamps by about 7mm - and seeing as I've drilled (to perfection I might add !) my new - yep, new take-off, only 200 road miles - tub to take the NAS lamps, so they're all perfectly in line, i'm bu&&ered if I'm going to mash it all about to make the wheel carrier fit.

Anyone want to buy a W&H / Safari-Equip swingaway spare wheel carrier, never been fitted - only suitable for non-NAS lamp equipped vehicles.

Might have to take a careful look at the Mantec carrier - think someone posted here earlier that its compatible with NAS lamps.
